Willow Valley is one of the regions newest and most exciting golfing venues, ideal for corporate entertainment offering a challenge for golfers of all abilities both on and off the course. With the South Course recently voted as the 9th best new course in the British Isles rest assured your day with us will fulfill all your expectations.
The courses were built under the supervision of John Newton, with professional advice from Jonathan Gaunt. The staff of Willow Valley Farms successfully took on the task of construction and provided the labour for all the work. Prior to the development of the golf courses the land provided 5,000 tons of silage to feed 1500 head of cattle. Construction of the Fountain or North Course, which occupies 35 acres, commenced October 1992 and opened for play exactly a year later in October 1993. The construction of the 160 acre Championship or South Course commenced October 1993 and the first 12 holes were in play from December 1995. The full 18 holes were officially opened on 21st June 1997. 15,000 tons of sand was used in the construction and it is irrigated using a well situated on the course itself, which supplies 3,000,000 gallons annually. Some of this water is used to irrigate the greens, which on average cover an area of 850 square metres. Fifteen lakes have been created, and 8 tons of bulbs have been planted along with 50,000 trees and shrubs. There are plans for the continued enhancement of the environment with further planting on the course and further stocking of fish in the lakes.
